Our Storm Shutter Materials
Our hurricane shutter materials include metal, aluminum and polycarbonate (clear plastic). You can find information about each below.
Metal Hurricane Shutters
Metal/steel hurricane shutters are typically your least expensive option. Metal is also the heaviest option. Steel is strong and meets the current Florida Building Codes. Metal options have a risk of rusting if not properly coated/treated, especially over time.
Aluminum Hurricane Shutters
Aluminum is strong and meets the current Florida Building Codes. It is lighter than steel and it does not corrode. Most shutter types are offered in aluminum.
Polycarbonate Hurricane Shutters
Lexan plastic, a trade name for polycarbonate, is a clear, extremely tough plastic material that meets the Florida Building Codes. Because it is clear it has the benefit of letting natural light into your home or office. Certain shutter types are offered in clear Lexan, including Lexan hurricane window panels and inserts for rolling shutters. Learn more about our clear, polycarbonate hurricane panels.
Kevlar Hurricane Shutters
We offer ArmorPanel hurricane fabric panels made from DuPont KEVLAR®. DuPont’s KEVLAR fabric is extremely strong yet lightweight and flexible. There is no compromises as this product meets all current Florida Building Codes.
Storm Shutters for Windows
Hurricane shutters are critical for protecting your home’s vulnerable spots, such as windows, from wind gusts and flying debris during a hurricane or tropical storm. Regular glass windows are at risk of breaking if impacted during severe weather. But windows with hurricane shutters installed are capable of withstanding the impact of flying objects and hurricane wind gusts.
We offer a full range of hurricane window protection. All of our hurricane shutter options are suitable as hurricane protection for windows. This includes accordion shutters for windows, roll down shutters, storm panels for windows, fabric shutters, and more.
Hurricane Shutters for Doors
Protecting your doors during a hurricane is similar to protecting your windows. Doors create vulnerable spots on your home during severe weather. Like windows they are susceptible to damage or even breaking when impacted by flying debris and severe wind gusts. Doors with hurricane shutters installed can withstand flying debris and hurricane force wind gusts.
Hurricane shutters can be used to protect sliding glass doors, patio doors, exterior french doors, entry doors, and more.
Some popular options are accordion shutters, roll down hurricane shutters, and storm panels. Rolling shutters also provide security for your sliding glass doors, patio doors, entry doors, front door, etc.

What is better? Impact resistant windows vs hurricane shutters?
Both options have their advantages.
Impact glass offers 24/7 protection without having to install and uninstall before a storm. Impact glass has a higher price vs. shutter options.
Hurricane shutters protect glass openings and are a bit less expensive vs. impact glass. However, they may not be the most aesthetically pleasing option.
Read more about deciding between impact resistant windows vs hurricane shutters.
When do I need to use hurricane shutters?
All new construction and pre-existing homes need some form of hurricane protection. Any “glass” opening on a home has the potential to break during a storm. This allows wind and rain to enter the building. These are the openings that should be protected. Other uses would be to enclose Lanais so that they are protected from the elements.
When do I put up storm shutters?
Typically, it depends on if you are a full-time or seasonal resident. In general, installing shutters a few days in advance of a storm is sufficient. Seasonal residents many times will close or install their shutters at the start of hurricane season in June. Then they take them down in November. Some of our shutters like Accordions and Roll-Downs only take a few minutes to use.
Learn more details on when to put up hurricane shutters.
How do I install hurricane panels?
Hurricane panels need to be installed and uninstalled before each storm. Although the process is fairly straight-forward it does require time and energy so knowing how to install panels is important.
If you have never installed storm panels before or need guidance please see our instructions on how to install hurricane shutters panels.
